• Day 11 - Nelson

    12 Oktober 2024, New Zealand ⋅ ☁️ 20 °C

    With the lovely weather when I arrived yesterday, June suggested I bring in my washing. Great move most was dry before the night was over.
    It was fish and chips for our meal. Always good to spend time with June and as always we talk about our boys. June lost her son two months after we lost Hayden and we met through The Compassionate Friends, a group for parents that have lost children. We understand what it is like.
    It was then out to the camper that was parked on the street. Reasonable average sleep.
    This morning I did some tidying of clothes and folded my fresh laundry.
    Bit cooler today so changed twice during the day to put on warmer clothes.
    June, her friend Alan and I went out for lunch at a retirement village quite handy to where they both live. Not spectacular food but very reasonably priced.
    Late this afternoon I had a quick cuppa with a friend then it was time to head back to June's to enjoy some whitebait. Cooked so well and looked at June's presentation of the salad..!
    June is a very keen gardener and she has some orchids on her bench from her garden.
    Some very heavy rain but not for long.
    On to Blenhiem and Picton tomorrow
